Isaiah 34 - ..people whom I have devoted to destruction. It has Predestination written all over it!

Isa 34:5 For My sword is satiated in heaven, Behold it shall descend for judgment upon Edom, And upon the people whom I have devoted to destruction.

The judgment will fall upon the land of Edom, which are the descendants of Esau. Elohim says He devoted them to destruction from the beginning.

Mal 1:3-4). The Edomites and their land later made up what we know to be the Arab people and territory today.
Isa 34:6 The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, It is sated with fat, with the blood of lambs and goats, With the fat of the kidneys of rams. For the LORD has a sacrifice in Bozrah, And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.

"The sword is filled with blood..." This destruction of Edom is spoken of in other parts of Scripture also.

Isa 63:1-4). (Bozrah was a city in Edom.)

Isa 34:7 Wild oxen shall also fall with them, And young bulls with strong ones; Thus their land shall be soaked with blood, And their dust become greasy with fat.

Isa 34:8 For the LORD has a day of vengeance, A year of recompense for the cause of Zion.

Elohim seems to say that this "day" is going to be a year in length. Elohim speaks of this in almost identical language in His Torah.

(Deut 32:41-43).

Isa 34:9 And its streams shall be turned into pitch, And its loose earth into brimstone, And its land shall become burning pitch.

Elohim is going to judge this area with fire, turning the streams into pitch, and the earth into brimstone. Even the land will become burning pitch. This is likely what is referred as the "lake of burning fire" spoken of in Scripture. First Islam will be thrown into it.

(Rev. 19:20).

Then those who reject His Torah.

(Rev. 21:8, Psalm 11:6)

Isa 34:10 It shall not be quenched night or day; Its smoke shall go up forever; From generation to generation it shall be desolate; None shall pass through it forever and ever.

The fire will never be quenched. Smoke will arise there forever as a memorial.

(Isaiah 66:23-24).
